At the 11:30 mark in the KZbin video, you'll see a variety of porridges showcased from left to right. The first one, called "Saw Kadha or Saw Kanji" is a Sago Porridge featuring sago, kithul (Caryota urens) or coconut jaggery syrup, coconut milk, and spices. Following that is "Kurakkan Kadha," or Finger Millet porridge (the one you've purchased), primarily made with finger millet, coconut milk, and coconut jaggery syrup. Next in line is the flavorful "Garlic Porridge," containing garlic, rice, coconut milk, and more. Unfortunately, the "Kola Kadha" wasn't available during filming. This traditional herbal gruel is typically prepared with rice, coconut milk, and the fresh juice of medicinally valued leafy greens, with the taste varying based on the leaves used. It's a common practice among Sri Lankans to consume this early in the morning on an empty stomach.

Here's a translation of what he said about buffalo curd: Cow's milk is viewed as "heaty" according to Ayurvedic medicine. This means that consuming cow's milk increases internal heat in your body. In contrast, buffalo milk has a cooling effect on your system. In Ayurvedic terms, the concepts of "heat" and "cool" are not related to the actual temperature of the food or drink, but rather the impact they have on your body. Most aches and pains are a result of excessive heat in your body. That's why in Sri Lanka people consume food that cools your body.

The drink you taste in the street is a healthy soup made from a grain called “kurakkan”
If you're visiting the Southern part of India, make sure to visit Kerala. There's a Hindu temple festival in Kerala called Thrissur Pooram, held on April 18th and April 17th in Thrissur city. This festival features 50 elephants and music. There are plenty of programs during this event. If you go there, you'll surely witness one of the most amazing festivals in the world. You can find more information about it online.

11:30 Kurakkan Porridge or Finger Millet Porridge. It is very healthy flour. Kurakkan is an important element for your diet because of its uniquely high content of nutrients, including higher amounts of dietary fibre, protein, high B-vitamin content, as well as calcium, iron, potassium, zinc and magnesium

The drink that you get, which is of course like woodapple juice is called kurakkan kanda in Sri Lanka, which is a type of porridge made from kurakkan flour, in English known as finger millet and the scientific name of the plant is Eleusine coracana. It is extremely delicious and nutritious as well and can be used as a meal. The green one is kola kanda, which is a herbal drink with smashed rice in it. That is also tasty and nutritious and a good breakfast for some working people in Sri Lanka. The first drink is not passionfruit juice, it is called sago porridge in English and sawu kanda in our native language Sinhala. Enjoy your stay in Sri Lanka and visit again guys...❤

1 tip for you , if u eat with hand only use fingers use fingers to mix vegetables with rice, dont just eat 1 meal eat all curry's together thats how we eat rice and curry (sri lankans are eating with hands but they are clean watch when they are eating lot of guys eating with just fingers they dont use middle of the hands to do it)
@EllisWR7 ай бұрын
We just use fingers! Best way to eat

a random curry that you have experienced with rice is called eggplant curry, and as you felt parata and egg rotty is one of my favourite for breakfast even for dinner, and my friend i will recommend you to experience the taste of roast chicken cheese koththu, and roast chicken string hopper kottu you gonna love it, also try out hoppers and egg hoppers with plain tea I'm pretty sure you gonna love it and you will be able to get the authentic sri lankan food experience.
